Kelly has thrown down the gauntlet to Wayne LaPierre, the NRAs combative chief executive, on the opening day of the gun lobbys annual convention in Houston, Texas. Writing in the Houston Chronicle, he accuses LaPierre and the rest of the NRAs leadership of turning their back on the traditional values of the association in a simple drive for profit.

I believe they are talking about mark kelley-giffords who didn't want to give up his maiden name. Owww. He threw down the gauntlet? Owww he's so scary. Is that threatening behavior? No guns for him. He is a disgrace to the uniform of the US Navy and to the astronauts of days gone by. Apparently too much time in space affects your thought process and reduces your ability to use reason and logic over time.

Hmmmm? I took the liberty of correcting the title. I guess I should have stated that in the original. I’m a bad boy. Also, I don’t waste capital letters on anyone who doesn’t deserve that much respect.

And I call for Kelly who may think he’s an astronaut, but he’s less than a man as far as I’m concerned. It’s unfortunately as to what happened to Gabby , but her handlers should have kept registered Democrats away from her in any crowded venue.

Most Democrats are crazy and you don’t know what these people will do. Most registered Republicans aren’t crazy so Gabby would be much more safe with these types: armed or unarmed. Armed would be better as she could be better protected against Democrat nut cases with guns.

Well, repubs/conservatives are in fact crazy for continuing to put up with this crap from the radical left wing extremist demokkkrat scumbag socialists. At least they make me “feel” uncomfortable trying to take away my rights. Maybe that could be the new tactic to take. The demokkkrats are making us “feel” bad. We surely would win some points that way. Right? Right? Probably not. Only their feelings count. Ours, not so much.

Of course he will be running for office. Most if not all the Democrats in Washington, Phoenix and Tucson along with a sizable majority of the GOPe think of this as the “Gabby Giffords Congressional Seat". And who better than Mark Kelly-Giffords to sit in it for the next 30 years or so? I think former Gifford aid, Ron Barber is the current placeholder, but assume he will be convinced to ‘retire’ so Kelly-Giffords can take his rightful place in the Gabby Giffords seat.

Damn, just writing this almost made me puke, but I think it is correct.

Yes, this is new Amerika. He will goose step in his Capri pants and tell us how and what we can own while he has his own firearms to play with. He will have his own security team when in Washington. What a piece of crap.

So, I don’t mess with your posts. It was a matter of derision for ms. kelly. Sorry you didn’t approve. Unless I violated something that says you have to post the title as is or declare the change during the posting of said item. LOL! Anyway, we should be using our efforts against the RLWEDSS.

Dude, there’s a good reason to keep the original title: It shows up when someone does a search while posting an article to prevent duplicate threads. Nothing personal against you, it’s just good netiquette.

That would be mx. mark kelley-giffords. I hear the brits are using “mx.” for transgenders. To be inclusive of course. They are the new improved jim and sarah brady. Younger, hipper and an astronautical hero as the spokes model. And nearly as dumb as sarah. No doubt they love their spouses but to use them for an agenda.............. Not cool.
